Example: 200 lb person = 240-300g protein daily Carbohydrates: Strategic timing IGF-1's glucose-lowering effects require careful carb management: Pre-workout: 40-60g carbs (fuel training) Post-injection: 30-50g fast carbs (prevent hypoglycemia) Post-workout meal: 60-80g carbs + protein (maximize nutrient uptake) Throughout day: 200-300g total depending on body size Fats: Don't neglect Supports hormone production 0.4-0.5g per lb body weight Focus on omega-3s (fish oil, salmon, walnuts) Hydration: Critical IGF-1 increases metabolic demands and protein synthesis, both water-intensive processes
In wound-healing studies, thymosin beta-4 has been linked to: enhanced cell migration angiogenesis re-epithelialisation modulation of inflammation support for tissue remodelling This is why TB-500 is often discussed in recovery circles as a peptide that may support the environment in which healing happens rather than acting as a simple muscle builder or direct stimulant
